Yes and no. The only detriment to receiving a lash extension service is that improper home care can be a huge problem. If you are a client receiving lash extensions, it is imperative that you take care of your new lashes. Home care includes the following musts:
1) Use a proper lash cleanser for your lashes in the evening to remove any dirt and oils from the day, one that is oil free as oil will cause the bonding to break from the lash extentions and cause them to fall out. (For Lash Cleanser check out our online store)
2) Do not apply any oil to the eye or lash line. This can Include topical skin care or cleansers containing oil.
3) After your lashes have become wet from showering and such, brush them out thoroughlay with a mascara spooly (we will always provide you with few to take and keep around.)
No! Mascara is the number one culprit to damaged natural lashes and synthetic lash extensions. However you may apply a sealant which coats and binds the lashes further and features a glossy black finish.

In return; Body Smooth uses the best quality lashes and lash materials available incluring appropriate synthetic lash lengths, dimensions, curls, and weights. As a result, our average clientelle have been able to maintain lash extensions for 5+ years without breaks and without damage to natural lash lines.
